Hollywood Director 1992.

Chapter 203 Beauty Feihong
After receiving the prompt, Link returned to the production studio with the film master tape and re-watched it several times.

After a 15% increase, the quality of the film has been significantly improved, the light, color and sound have become more coordinated, the shots are very textured, and the actors' performances are more contagious.

Link took notes while watching the movie. In addition to looking for differences, he was also learning, striving to make fewer mistakes next time when shooting, and to raise the completion rate to over 99% without any quality increase.

However, this amplification seems very advanced, like a technology from a higher dimension, and it is not easy to learn in a short period of time.

After watching it, Link handed the film master back to the production department and notified the publicity and distribution department to arrange the film's release. Now the market compliance rate of "Seven Deadly Sins" is 75%, which is higher than the previous one. It can make more money if it is released early.

"Link, why does this movie look so much more sophisticated than yesterday's?"

Daniel DeVito and the production team asked Link after watching the new version of "Seven Deadly Sins".

"I have refined it once, please take a look and see if there are any problems. If not, I will revise it."

Link said, yawning.

"No, no, don't change it. This movie is so great. Any further changes will destroy the integrity of the movie. Now in my mind, this is a perfect movie, absolutely perfect."

Daniel DeVito adjusted his glasses, his big face flushed with excitement.

"Yes, the artistic level is not inferior to Spielberg's Schindler's List. I suggest using this movie to impact the Oscars next year. Maybe we can win a few awards."

said producer James Schamus.

Assistant director Paul Thomas Anderson and others nodded repeatedly, the quality of "Se85en" was indeed very high. During the previous internal preview, he gave the movie a score of 90, and now it is at least points. It would not be an exaggeration to give it a full score.

Paul Anderson admired Link very much. He joined Link's crew when filming "Final Destination". He originally thought that Link could only shoot commercial films such as "Paranormal Activity", "The Blair Witch Project" and "Final Destination".

As a literary director, he initially looked down on Link's films and did not recognize Link's directing ability.

It was only during the filming of "Final Destination" and "Seven Deadly Sins" that he witnessed Link's rigorous work style, superb camera skills, and his ability and technique in editing films, which were simply amazing.

What impressed him even more was that Link had a good grasp of both commercial and art films. He made commercial films that everyone loved to watch, and he made art films that were profound, sophisticated, and of a very high artistic level.

This is better than 99% of his peers in the film industry, and only a very few directors such as Spielberg can do this.

Paul Anderson decided to stay with Link and learn filmmaking techniques from him.

"Let's not worry about the Oscars for now, and continue to release the film as planned. It would be even better if the Academy is willing to give out awards, but if they don't, there's no need to force it. We will have more opportunities in the future."

Link said, waving his hand.

If "Se7en" wants to win an Oscar, it would be best to release it at the end of the year, when the Oscar judges are ready to vote. A good movie released at that stage is more likely to win the judges' favor.

However, Link does not think that the Academy will give the Best Director Award to him, a 22-year-old new Chinese director, not to mention that he has a very bad reputation in the film industry, known as a "junk film director" and a disruptor of the film market order.

Most of the Oscar judges are older filmmakers who prefer art films and have conservative ideas.

It is more difficult for Link to win the Oscar for Best Director than for most directors in the industry.

After hearing what he said, Daniel DeVito and the others stopped trying to persuade him. After Link left, they got together and watched "Seven Deadly Sins" twice, praising the movie highly.

Daniel DeVito suggested sending "Seven" to the Cannes Film Festival to build its reputation abroad first, which would save a lot of publicity funds when it is released in the future.

Link didn't object.

After finishing work on "Seven Deadly Sins", on Saturday, Link got off work early and drove to Rex Apartment.

"Boss Lin, you are here."

"Long time no see Link, you look handsome again."

"Hello, Mr. Lin!"

As soon as he arrived at the door of the apartment, the door opened from the inside. Chen Chong and Wu Junmei, wearing beautiful fashions and delicate makeup, stood at the door to greet him, their eyes full of eagerness. Behind them stood a beautiful girl, wearing a T-shirt and blue jeans, dressed very freshly, with a slightly old-fashioned look, but a delicate oval face. The girl was Yu Feihong, one of the heroines of The Joy Luck Club.

Yu Feihong is 22 years old this year. She graduated from Beijing Film Academy and was invited to play the role of Yingying in "The Joy Luck Club" last year.

"The Joy Luck Club" was completed in July, released in Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan and other regions in October, and released in North America in December. Its global box office has now reached 7 million US dollars, with good reputation and box office.

Yu Feihong also became famous because of this movie and is planning to study in the United States to learn Hollywood film art and technology.

Link had met her once on the set of The Joy Luck Club, so she wasn't a stranger.

"Which school is Miss Yu going to attend?"

Link asked as he hung up his coat and sat down.

"I applied to six universities and am still waiting for a response. I'm not sure which one to go to."

Yu Feihong stood beside Wu Junmei, speaking softly and not daring to look at him too much, appearing rather nervous and shy.

Chen Chong put her arm around Yu Feihong's shoulders and said with a smile, "The film department at the University of Southern California is pretty good. Directors Spielberg, George Lucas, and Ron Howard all graduated from USC."

Yu Feihong glanced at Link, wrung her hands and said, "I also applied to USC, but the number of foreign exchange students accepted by the USC Film Department each year is limited, so it's difficult for ordinary people to get approved."

Vivian Wu poured a cup of tea for Link, "It doesn't matter where you go to school. Link has never been to a film school, but he can still make so many good movies. Although he is not from an academic background, his ability is better than many masters and doctoral students in film majors."

Lin Ke smiled and said, "Going to school is a very good thing. I didn't go to college because I didn't have the money and the opportunity. If I had the conditions at that time, I would also be happy to study in college for a few years before becoming a director."

Chen Chong laughed, "Lin Ke, you are not too old now, you are only 22 years old, younger than many college students, it is not too late for you to go to college now."

"There's no need for Link to go to university. With his level, he can be a professor in the film department of a university."

Wu Junmei said in support.

Chen Chong quickly agreed.

"What are you talking about?"

Liu Xiaoli came out of the kitchen, wearing a white LV dress with a blue apron on the outside. A pearl necklace hung on her fair swan neck. She looked plump and beautiful, like a good wife and mother.

"Talking about Feihong's schooling, Lin Ke said he also wanted to go to college," said Chen Chong.

Liu Xiaoli looked at Link and smiled, "How can he have time to go to school? There are a lot of things waiting for him to deal with in the company. If he wants to go to school, he has to close the company first."

Wu Junmei joked, "Aren't you still here? I heard that when Link was filming outside, guess what, you were in charge of the film business. Everyone said that you were Link's good wife."

"Don't talk nonsense. I am only responsible for public relations in the company. Other things are not my responsibility and I can't manage them."

Liu Xiaoli said.

Chen Chong smiled and said, "There was indeed a lot of news about Guess What Pictures in the second half of last year. You could see it in the newspaper every day. There was also news about you answering reporters' questions on behalf of Guess What Pictures. Xiaoli, you are becoming more and more like a strong woman now."

"It was all Link's fault. I originally just wanted to be an assistant, but he pushed me into the public relations department."

Liu Xiaoli looked unhappy.

Link smiled and did not refute Liu Xiaoli's words.

After chatting for a while, Liu Xiaoli returned to the kitchen to cook. Chen Chong and Wu Junmei said they wanted to show off their skills to Lin Ke, and they rolled up their sleeves and went to the kitchen.

Link, Yu Feihong and Liu Qianqian were watching TV and chatting outside.
